COVID-19 safety protocols and testing have become more relaxed and inconsistent at award shows this year, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

One actress who was hell-bound on NOT catching COVID-19 was Jessica Chastain.

The Oscar-winning actress proudly wore a face mask, which matched the fabric of her gown, at the Golden Globes.

The actress was very nervous about getting sick due to her participation in New York City play for “A Doll’s House.”

“I’m a little nervous about getting sick, but I got my mask. I’m doing both,” she told Laverne Cox during her interview with LIVE from E! “You have to be so careful in the theater, because I don’t want to let my cast down.”

Chastain also showed off her matching mask and dress on Instagram.

“When the mask matches the dress ?,” she captioned the video montage.
